Whereas the bearing of mass measurement error on protein identification is sometimes underestimated, uncertainty in observed peptide masses unavoidably translates to ambiguity in subsequent protein identifications. Although ongoing instrumental advances continue to make high accuracy mass spectrometry (MS) increasingly accessible, many proteomics experiments are still conducted with rather larg...

We investigate the detection of β-meteoroids (i.e. dust particles that leave the Solar system in unbound orbits from the direction of the Sun) in the data set of the Ulysses dust experiment. Analysis of the detection geometry of the experiment for the time span from launch until the end of 1995 shows that the detection of β-meteoroids is possible during 3 phases of the mission: in the first 100...

background: date is one of the foodstuff s that are produced in tropical areas and used worldwide. conventionally, methyl bromide and phosphine are used for date disinfection. the toxic side effects of these usual disinfectants have led food scientists to consider safer agents such as ozone for disinfection, because food safety is a top priority. the present study was performed to investigate t...

background: th e eff ects of chronic valproic acid administration on bone health have been a matter of concern and controversy.in this study, the bone status following valproate intake was assessed by using several bone-related biochemical markers. materials and methods: in this case-control study, 62 epileptic patients and 40 age- and gender-matched controls were enrolled. the patients had bee...

since, the nutritional behavior is a complicated process in which various factors play the role, this study aimed at specifying the effective factors in nutritional behavior of diabetic patients based on health promotion model. this paper reviews the published articles from 2000 to the beginning of 2012, using the various data banks and search engines such as pubmed, proquest, scopus,elsevier, ...

background: for healthcare workers, sometimes the conventional hepatitis-b virus (hbv) vaccination schedule might not provide seroconversion rapidly enough. the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of conventional hbv vaccination with an accelerated schedule (days 0-1-21). normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa materials and methods: in this randomized clinical trial, 161 health...
